The new entry garden will feature rare plants from around the world, a fountain, a sloped walkway, and seating among an ascending, multilayered open woodland planting.
Once inside, Garden visitors will be immediately greeted with stunning views of some of the Garden’s most iconic locations as well as a new garden and fountain to the south.
A new conservatory will house a permanent collection of Mediterranean plants.
A single desk will provide integrated information, ticket sales, membership sales, and security.
The Garden’s shop will host outdoor plant sales, and enhanced dining options will include a grab-and-go location as well as a sit-down café that will have expansive views into the Garden.
In addition to a revamped main lobby, a large function space will expand the Garden’s ability to serve the community, welcoming visitors and serving as the host site for private films, events, conferences, and educational sessions all year long.
